This opportunistic yeast is often inhaled from the environment and capable of causing deadly meningitis in immunocompromised patients. Approximately one million new cases occur annually among HIV/AIDS patients in sub-Saharan Africa. The proposal employs next-gen sequencing of multiple, selected strains, comparative genomics, population genetics, and microarrays to identify the genes and pathways that are responsible for cryptococcal disease.

When a fungus is found, be it a mycelium from a rotting fruit, a mushroom from the forest, or something growing on a petri dish, we have used morphological and other phenotypic characteristics to group them together and identify if it is an already known species or a new one. However, some fungi have very different shapes and forms that occur during asexual and sexual (after mating with a partner) stages, some incredible elaborate and even (to some people) beautiful. Because these stages mean that fungi can look very different, and often these fungi are not amenable to life in the laboratory (e.g. we can’t get it to complete the lifecycle in an petri dish in the lab), it was the case that observed asexual (or anamorp...

ITS (Internal Transcribed Spacer) is the typically used barcode for identifying fungi at the species level as it works for most (but not all) groups of Fungi. It falls between highly conserved nuclear rDNA genes (18S, 5.8S, 28S) but tends to be hypervariable making it a reasonable locus for identification of species since it tends to be unique between species but fairly unchanged among individuals from the same species.

These all have pros and cons. Some are more comprehensive and have many more species. Some are curated orthologies and paralogy which should be pretty stable. Some are automated and groupings and ortholog group IDs change at each iteration. A phylogenetic approach from a Saccharomyces perspective is at PhylomeDB. Fungal Orthogroups is based on Synergy algorithm from I. Wapinski formerly of the Regev group at the Broad Institutue. Yeast gene order browser (YGOB) for Saccharomyces spp and CGOB for Candida spp. OrthoMCL database based on whole genomes, not a ton of fungi but useful starting set.
